We propose to observe four neutron star or black hole soft X-ray transients (SXTs) in outburst to obtain accurate source positions, continuing a successful multi-year program in place since Cycle 6. These positions will allow reobservation of these sources in the X-ray, optical, and IR in order to study their quiescence emission. This program will increase the number of known SXTs with good positions, providing a more uniform sample for future work. We will only trigger our program for sources in crowded or obscured fields where a position from another instrument (e.g., Swift) is insufficient.
